One such example is the US Cellular-exclusive ZTE Blade MAX 3. Commercially released on America’s fifth largest mobile carrier without notice or fanfare, the 6-incher packs a “massive” 4000mAh battery promising to “power you through your day.”

Following in the footsteps of USC’s similarly low-profile ZTE Imperial Max from last year, the Blade MAX 3 upgrades its predecessor’s dual rear camera setup to include a nice pair of 13MP RGB and mono sensors.

Adrian has had an insatiable passion for writing since he was in school and found himself writing philosophical essays about the meaning of life and the differences between light and dark beer.
